International Cross Domain Conference and Workshop (CD-ARES 2013)

supported by IFIP TC 8 (WG 8.4, WG 8.9) and TC 5

To be held in conjunction with the International Conference on Availability, Reliability and Security (ARES 2013 – http://www.ares-conference.eu).

September 2^nd – 6^th, 2013
University of Regensburg, Germany

Today's highly interconnected and interdependent information systems are used in many different ways in order to perform and improve business operations. Thus, a multidisciplinary view on information systems is of great importance to meet future research challenges. This IFIP supported conference therefore is focused on multidisciplinary aspects across the breadth of Business and Enterprise Information Systems.

The aim of this conference is to foster a forum for researchers and practitioners for discussing and resenting recent research ideas and results across the multiple research domains. The conference will be held in conjunction with the ARES conference. Therefore authors of papers with security and dependability focus are also encouraged to contribute to this workshop.

As a multidisciplinary platform this conference will also provide the possibility of discussing addional interactions between elements that extend beyond technology such as organisational issues to include environmental factors (e.g. location based aspects, national and international payment mechanisms, ...)

Topics of this conference include (but are not limited to):

• Context-Oriented Information Integration
• Cloud computing, ICT-services, scalability, reliability, flexibility
• Linked data, meta-data and semantic technologies
• Data process-based integration
• Cross-organizational modeling
